Question
An 11 KV generating station has four identical 3-phase alternators A,B,C and D and
each of 10 MVA and 12% reactance. There are two sections of bus-bar, P and O
linked by a reactor rated at
connected to bus-bar section
MVA with 24% reactance. Alternators A and B are
and alternators C and D to bus-bar section Q. From
each section, load is taken through a number of 6 MVA, 11/66KV step-up
transformers, each having a reactance of 3%. Calculate the current fed into a fault if
a short-circuit occurs on all phases near the high-voltage terminals of one of the
transformers at the bus-bar section Q.
